That plugin is JAVA, for which I have installed, using both Automatix2 & Synaptic, yet java is still not working for me...I have the latest version of Firefox 2.0.x installed too... Easyubuntu, I thought that is was only for older versions of ubuntu not 6.10...? Now it's crazy, but I had know problem installing java in ubuntu dapper 6.06, but I am sure having a problem in 6.10... Thanks for the reply...
